In March 2015, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) issued a Record of Decision (the final decision-making document for the project) selecting a build alternative (see map above). ADOT is proceeding with right-of-way acquisition and the procurement of final design and construction services. Freeway construction will begin in 2016, with the Chandler Boulevard extension project to facilitate local access beginning in summer 2015. The freeway is planned to be open to traffic in late 2019 or early 2020.
